Dude, this guy's stuff is legit.
Of course it is, did you see his hands?
Huh?
Frank is more helpful than me instructions and the crealiry support people combined. Thanks so much bro, keep it up. Can you do a hot end upgrade video for the spider high temp high flow v3 pro? Thanks.
Just got this printer on your second video and super informative
Glad it was helpful!
I'm new to computers period. I've decided to pick a computer and this printer up, it's definitely intimidating. But your videos definitely make me feel better.
You convinced me to subscribe! Love your no BS approach, I feel like you're giving me the tools to make my own choice, and not bound by a "sponsor". You convinced me on the 5-PLUS, and actually just received it. I'll keep coming back as I progress along, so keep the vids coming!
Heck yeah!!! I appreciate that so much. I try not to just “sell you stuff” I use this stuff too ya know? I’d hate if someone blew smoke at me.
@@FranklyBuilt I just wanted to thank you. I did the extruder upgrade, and I love it. IT really is a lot easier to load filament it seems. No more fight to put it through the extruder! Also just feels a lot more sturdy.
been watching all your videos just took out paypal credit and going to buy one ender 5 plus, thank you :)
I love so much my ender 5 plus. And your videos! Thank you so much Frank 🤘
Thank you very much for this video and the ender 5 build video. I was a bit nervous at first, but after following your instructions I was able to upgrade my printer after I clogged the nozzle. Very helpful videos - I am less worried about my abilities now!
Thank you! Changed both of them right along with your video! Great work!
Thanks so much for this video! I’ve followed you on TikTok for a while and just got my new aluminum extruder & knew exactly who could make the process simple. Keep up the awesome work!
Great video! This and your build video of the ender-5 was a HUGE help!
just bought this printer as our first 3d printer cant wait to get started
I just bought this for my first printer yesterday, scheduled to arrive in 8 days. I watched the assembly video, and this one, beginning to end. BIG thanks! These vids will be an enormous help! Subbed!
How was it
@@reesekilpatrick241 The first one I received had a bad power supply and died within 30 minutes, but I exchanged it (what a pain disassembling and packing it up again!) and the new one is absolutely flawless! I couldn't be happier. Good size bed and excellent prints! Had to learn to adjust the settings a bit through trial and error, as well as videos like this, but in the end, I'm so happy I went for this one.
Ended up grabbing one aswell thanks for the info!
Best tutorials i have found about my printer, thanks bro
Can't wait for my extruder kit and capricorn to arrive!!
Thank you so much. My Ender 5 Plus is new and the prints keep getting worse and worse. Sure enough,a broken extruder arm. Now the E5P is hammering out perfect prints. Thanks for this video and all the others, they are so helpful.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I love this printer and the prints were amazing!! But the quality of my prints were getting worse with every print. I took the extruder apart and looked at the plastic arm and sure enough, it was cracked just like you said in the video. Installed the metal kit and it is printing better than new.
Great job on this tutorial, 5 stars!
Just bought my first printer. Great tutorial Frank thanks
save my life, thank you for posting the video
The screw for the spring was on the other way on the original extruder to be able to adjust spring tension. Be a real pain adding pressure with the screw head inside the spring.
Thanks a lot for a great video!
Thank you for your info very informative and educational
I will have to buy one of those kits before the end of the year.
Thanks for the info, i'm installing this exact same kit, and wanted to get a visual of what to do before i started taking things apart
Appreciate the video this helped out a lot
Nice video. I'll look for yours with dual metal extruder. But my E5+ extruder motor had pressed on gear and short shaft!
I have been using glass beds for years and swear by them. The best way to clean them, I have found is to use Camera Lens Cleaner. It doesn't leave any residue. Also the Anycubic Ultrabase works well... if you keep it clean and let the prints cool before forcing them off the plate. I'm beginning to like the Ender-5 Plus, may end up getting one, if so I will use your link to help out your channel.
Dude thank you so much!!
I am blown away how good this instruction video was:)
Still deciding on which printer to buy but i am leaning toward a Creality. It will be my first so i am reading and learning as much as i can about 3d printers until i decide which to get.
Creality Ender 5+
Anycubic Chiron
Wanhao dupicator d12/300 are the ones im picking between.
Any recomendations for a first printer with helmetsize printbed? I i am currently learning about the assembling and upgrading and such. So even if i never had a machine i think i will have a good chance to work things out.
Subscribed!!!
I had horrible jamming in my E3 and it was because the bowden was statting to melt slightly. Cant stress enough how important it is to swap to capricorn asap
For some reason the only way I can get it to extrude properly is to push down on the lever. If I don’t the bearing won’t spin like it’s supposed to.
Awesome
Thank you for the video, it was helpful. I plan on changing my extruder to a dual gear extruder. And when I do that I understand I need to adjust the e steps on the settings to make sure it is extruding the proper amount of plastic. How do I do that on the Ender 5 Plus? The touchscreen menus are completely different to the typical Marlin scroll knob menu on my regular Ender 5, and I don't see that option anywhere.
Creality Ender-5 Plus arriving Monday 3/15/2020. I'm watching videos hoping to get this thing right.
Hey neato. Just FYI the countersunk screw goes in the countersunk location.
First of all thanks for all your vids, I did the original install of my ender 5 plus and this via your vids. Secondly, does it matter what length the lube is as mine was slightly longer than stock? Also in a slight related (maybe) not, my extruder does worse then than stock, any ideas? I have had a lot of issues with my ender 5 plus levelling and I'm installing a dial indicator tomorrow so fingers crossed!
Take a shot when he says actually lol
the extruder is your hot end, it extrudes the melted plastic. What your calling the extruder is the feeder, because it feeds the filament into the extruder.
Sorry that’s not accurate. Your extruder is the gear and lever arm that forces the filament through. The hot end is the section that heats up.
Hi great videos :) I am thinking about buying my first 3d printer and I really like ender 5 plus, especially due to its huge printing volume but are the prints as good as smaller printers like ender 5 pro or ender 3 v2? I would like to have the bigger printing volume but not at the cost of printing quality.
Which one of them would you choose?
Thank you so much
Frankly Built....They make hex screw plate clamps that tighten down via hex key ive notice the same thing with the binder clip might be something worth investing in
I have 2 Ender 5 plus printers and one came with a keyway on the motor stem but the newest one didn't and there are no grub screws holding the gear on, trying to get the gear off was near impossible (as though it was epoxied on) so I bought a replacement motor (different wiring setup) and a genuine Bondtech BMG extruder as when printing fast on the other machine with its copperhead the aluminium extruder was struggling to supply enough filament and caused under extrusion so I had to slow down but the Bondtech has no problem with speed.
Thanks for all the info, what do you know about upgrading to the silent mother board?
Hi! I just ordered my very first 3D printer - an Ender 5 Plus! Can I make these upgrades (the metal extruder and the Capricorn Bowden tube) in initial set up and build, without having to heat it up first? TIA!
Show man
Hey I had a question, you mentioned you used a 3d STL ruler file to do measurements in Cura. Where did you find that? Currently getting all the files ready for print while waiting for 3d printer, trying to figure out the electronics also lol i did leds in a 12 in ironman model i had built but that was 7 years ago. Brushing up Kid you not probably watched 10 of your videos a day preparing
I actually can’t find the stl anymore haha it was on Thingiverse.com somewhere
And that’s awesome!
Hey man great vid, I have one of these coming, I wondered what PLA+ do you use? I’m in UK also so was wondering where is best to get it from?
Evil_Dead_Chainsaws hey man that’s awesome! I use Sunlu PLA+ and Monoprice
Great video Frank. I discovered your channel yesterday and I subbed but I had a question for you. You have a CR-10s and you moved up to a Ender 5 Plus for the larger size. Since you do cosplay prints why the Ender 5 Plus and not one of the larger CR-10 printers? I been contemplating a larger printer for such reasons myself and was curious about your opinion/reasons for not going even larger than the Ender 5 Plus.
I also have a cr-10max. But it’s slow. As you go up prints slow down. The 5plus is a great middle ground. The s4 and S5 are problematic sometimes
@@FranklyBuilt Thank you for the reply Frank. I know you are a busy guy. After I asked the question I saw your print room video and your vlog had answered some questions. Next printer I'm thinking going bigger and I'm looking at the Ender 5 Plus and the CR 10 MAX and you gave me some good info to go on. Thank you.
Can I swap the original extruder gear with a direct extruder kit? Do you have a kit or instructions you suggest?
Ty for this video
that's my next project with my Ender 5-Pro (I know it's not a plus, but it's essentially the same) is swapping out the Bowden Tube, for a Direct Drive.. I'm willing to sacrifice a bit of speed for reliability and ease... make it so its easy for anyone in my house to use without having a degree to operate it. LMAO
Hey! Just got mine setup based off your last video and upgraded as of this video, what a jump from my 3 Pro lol. Is there a way to get rid of the triangle purge line? Besides turning off auto leveling
Not that I know of. Keep it tho. Its very handy for ensuring you have good adhesion and level before the print starts
Hey Frank, was the bed sliding around causing banding? Im having a bad banding problem now since I started doing taller prints, its super noticable at heights over 7 inches. All belts are tight, I just got new flex couplers and anti-backlash nuts but I havent installed yet, thats next step. But I was wondering if its the binder clips like you said
Could be the clips. Kind of odd. Mine doesn’t do that
That one screw at the upper part should be put the right way with that spring... There's one part missing for the screw like a rivet head helping to add some pressure to that spring...…
Just got this printer a couple of weeks ago. My stock tube is already slipping and the Capricorn with fittings is on the way. I'm interested in the metal extruder, would you share a link for it if it's still meeting your expectations?
It always is. It’s a must have. Check Amazon
Hey mate I do not have that Elen key thing 9:30
to loosen the pinion I need to move it a bit because it has worn down and the filament is not feeding properly what do I do?
Omg. I'm obsessed with that tool holder. Do you mind sharing where you got that? Thank you.
I have no idea lol thingiverse somewhere last yeah
@@FranklyBuilt thank you. I'll check again.
Hi! Do you notice any wearing on the belts in the Y axis?
Would you be able ro go through your 3d printing software setup, settings and how you have your supports I've been trying to find out how you do it but I'm having no luck.
Matthew Miller already have videos on that!
@@FranklyBuilt where are the videos
Search for them lol it’s literally called my 3D printer settings
After changing the extruder did you have to redo your e step?
I can help out with the back left ending gcode problem out of cura :) mine stops on his zero like he should in the right back
My original excruder key that came with the machine doesn’t have Alan bolts on it. No idea how to take it off or if I even should? It seems to grip and spin fine
Is your printer loud. Another video says to replace the board with a silent board. What do you think?
Would the bondtech bmg extruder work/be a good upgrade for the ender 5 plus?
my y wheels were too tight out of the box as well. so tight there was 'notching' as it travelled
If the tension on the extruder arm is too taut, how do I loosen it off a little?
How do you adjust the media flow? Upgraded mine with dual gear extruder and now it under extruds. I'm getting just 67mm in a 100mm feed test run.
No idea 🤷♂️ I didn’t have to adjust anything. You didn’t change the stepper motor so there shouldn’t be a reason to adjust esters
is it possible to put a volcano nozzle on this printer?
Don't you have to calculate and adjust extrusion and retraction rates when you change this part?
No. This isn’t replacing the stepper motor just the gear and lever
out of curiosity, how much did it cost? i want to get into it (i'd start with some faceshells i want to print)
Uhhh no idea haha hop on google
My extruder motor has a push to fit gear. Do y'all think I should try to remove the gear or get a whole new motor with a beveled edge instead?
Late comment but have you seen an issue with buying the all metal extruded and where you screw in the nozzle it doesn’t have threads? I’m stuck with this and thinking just put plastic back on
You might have been sent a defective one
Hello. My bowden tube is loose, the side where the extruder is. Do I need to replace the coupler? Thank you.
Probably
I can't get my Ender 5 to set the Z0.0 when I set properly and push the Z 0 button it raises up the 20mm. I've tried everything I would appreciate any help
Good morning, I have a question about the Ender 5 plus and the upgrade to the all-metal extrusion. What would be the best way to contact you to ask this question don't want to say anything negative on your page.
this (with few mods) or cr-10s pro v2? i really have hard time deciding...
This with a few mods only if you’re okay getting youre hands a little dirty
Is the coupler supposed to thread in on top? There is no "female" thread on the top of the extruder I got from amazon.
Update: the kit I bought no longer uses the threaded coupler. Installed correctly.
So I need a lot of help, what is happening is that the Bowen tube is slipping from the metal plate where the filament goes into. The little rubber part that you push down to lock in the Bowen tube keeps popping up. I have a ender 5 pro, the fully upgraded version with the red feeder and the blue bowen tube. Please help and FAST
Frank! What do you think about the direct feed?
I think it’s a waste on normal FDM printers unless you start printing crazy weird materials
@@FranklyBuilt ah okay. I actually heard about it in a tpu video lol. Thanks for the response !
Ok I need a lot of help, so what is happening is that I have the endet 5 pro, and the Bowen tube is slipping mid print out of the the metal plate where the filament goes into. Please help
I'm going to start 3d printing what modeling software do you use
None. I don’t know how to 3D model yet
@@FranklyBuilt but how did you print the suit
stormacraft with my 3D printing lol you’re confusing 3D modelling with printing. Keep watching it videos. Go watch my “how to 3D print” video
@@FranklyBuilt ok
@@FranklyBuilt but what I'm trying to say is how did you get the files
May i ask ender 3 V2 , ender 5 pro or ender 5 plus which one is better for beginner ???
That’s not even a competition haha Ender 5 plus all day. It’s huge
Tq for the reply and i cannot wait for the finish mk39 of yours 😊
Hi, can you tell me what the buildplate size is of the plus see everywhere 350x350 but i believe it is 370x370
350x350x400
@@FranklyBuilt Thank you
Hi, better ender 5 plus or cr 10 s pro v2
ender 5 plus
Did you do the hot end fix?
Nope never needed too
Oh Great, the allen-key bolts you talk about at 9:33 aren't there on my printer, the extruder gear is pressure fitted to the stepper motor and I have no idea how to remove it...
Me too!! What do I do?
@@Soniti1324 I ordered a new stepper motor for like 10 Euro and used that one instead.
Thanks for the video--I bought one from Creality but the coupler does not have anything to screw into. There are no threads at the top of the extruder for the coupler. Is there supposed to be an insert or something?
Yeah that’s super weird. Might be a defective one
Does anyone know what size the set screw on the extruder gear is?
Is it just as loud as the cr-10?
A little louder actually but a silent mainboard makes it invisible
That's always been creality Achilles heel. Supposedly the new CR 6 is silent but we will see.
My filament is grinding. Gonna throw it at the wall.
Wtf i cant screw coupler on top because there are no threads inside of the metal hole ffs
good vid nice info but be alittle nicer to your hands dude
Dude. Please take care of your fingers...those look painful.
Nice video however it is nothing like a core xy or even close to that type of concept, A core XY printers movement mechanics like a delta, having multiple motors working on movements to lighten the load while moving, like a delta math calculations are a lot higher load then this Cartesian printer, it has nothing to do with the shape of the cube, or bed movement up and down, its to do with how it moves, Core xy uses two motors at the same time to make xy movements working together on same belt paths. as a delta does using all three motors and belts at once for its movements, :D just so you sound smarter for your other printer videos as to not compare apples to oranges. Also to bad companies would stop putting in cheap crap quality parts to make some one spend a half a grand or more to have to spend more to ensure it works properly so irritating to me and im sure others.
